Robert Chevillon Nuits-Saint-Georges Les Bousselots 1er Cru

92/100 PP The 2005 Nuits-St.-Georges Les Bousselots offers aromas of ripe red and black cherry, sassafras and licorce, a more subdued sense of piquant nuttiness than accrued to the Chaignots, and distinct, roasted meatiness as well. A bright fresh fruit essence on the palate is under-girded by stony minerality and firm but fine tannins. Distinctly bitter herbal shadings and overtly stony, iodine and saline minerality finish the impressively-concentrated long, lean picture. This seems likely to mature more slowly than the Chaignots, but either could be held for at least a decade – in that regard, this domaine’s track record is stellar, even in lesser vintages. (David Schildknecht, robertparker.com) Our domain has been historically deeply attached to growing vines for 4 generations. We have the privilege of working a world-renowned terroir. Our expertise has its roots in tradition, but is also inspired by modern methods, pushing us naturally towards creating fine wines. The domain covers an area of 13 hectares of vines, mostly red Premier Crus (8). Guyot pruning is used. The final result is structured, fruity, elegant, fine and complex wines, made to be kept. (Domaine Robert Chevillon) Les Bousselots has a sustained colour. In its youth, it is fairly austere, but over time the aromas diversify, evolving towards fresh leather and animal notes with fine balsamic and liquorice scents. (Domaine Robert Chevillon)
